Answer:

A. same genotype as the father (AaBbCcDdee) = (½ x ½ x ½ x ½ x ½) = 0.03

B. phenotypically resemble the father (A_B_C_D_ee) = (½ x ½ x ¾ x 1 x ½) = 0.09

C. same genotype as the mother (aabbCcDDEe) = (½ x ½ x ½ x ½ x ½) = 0.03

D. phenotypically resemble the mother (aabbC_D_E_) = (½ x ½ x ¾ x 1 x ½) = 0.09

E. phenotypically resemble neither parent (simply subtract the probability of phenotypically resembling each parent from 1) = 1 – (0.09375 + 0.09375) = 0.81

Explanation:

The computation of the total probability would simply be the product of individual chances for each particular gene.

Answer:

A. The number of cells that are dying is balanced by the number of new cells that are being formed.

C. Harmful waste products may be accumulating.

D. The cells are likely running out of nutrients.

Explanation:

During the stationary phase, the number of viable cells remains constant. This may be due to a balance between cell division and cell death wherein the total number of newly formed cells and the cells undergoing death are equal.

Nutrient limitation is one of the several factors that make the microbial cells to enter the stationary phase. Depletion of nutrients slows down the population growth.

Accumulation of toxic waste products as it occurs during the growth of anaerobic bacteria also adversely affects the population growth.

For example, the accumulation of lactic acid and other organic acids (by-products of anaerobic respiration) inhibits the growth of the population by making the medium acidic.

valkas [14]
<span>In getting her plants to grow, the gardener should use the color blue for her colored translucent sheets. The reason for this is because it will be absorbed by the plants, causing them to get the light absorption that they so desperately need. Other colors, such as green, are absorbed into plants (as can be observed by their green colors), and thus they do not absorb the light through this color.</span>
